Netizens slam Lauren Boebert over her weak stand on Colorado policies
The internet joined Trisha Calvarese in ridiculing Republican Lauren Boebert over their debate in the built-up to upcoming elections. Many called her inefficient and called her to be voted out.
One user commented on the clip of Boebert debate on X, "The only way to hold her accountable is to vote her out and send her home permanently. One less chaos agent near the levers of power."
"Let's get rid of Lauren Boebert once and for all. Not only is she an embarrassment to our state, but also to our nation. Please join me and donate/volunteer to her Democratic opponent," a second user shared.
A supporter expressed, "You are the right choice Trisha. Excellent job holding her to account on her votes."
"Republicans must not know the concept of study groups when confronted with reading volumes of proposed laws and programs to help Americans. We need members of Congress who know how to govern and get things done. Clearly, Lauren Boebert is not in that category," another user slammed.
